We look at the division of 490490 by 26 
Let's see how many times 26 fits into 490490.

On to step 1:
26 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 49 / 26

Step 2:
49 divided by 26 is 1 with a remainder of 23.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 26 from 49, we get 23.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 23 and repeat the process: 230 / 26

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 230 by 26, we get 8 and a remainder of 22.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18.0
Subtract 208 from 230 to get 22.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 22 and repeat the process: 224 / 26

Step 4:
26 goes into 224 8 times with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 188.0
If we subtract 208 from 224, we get 16.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 16 and repeat the process: 169 / 26

On to step 5:
26 can be fit into 169 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 1886.0
If we take 156 away from 169, we end up with 13.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 13 and continue with: 130 / 26

Advancing to step 6:
26 goes into 130 5 times with a remainder of 0.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18865.0
If we subtract 130 from 130, we get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 0 by 26, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18865.0
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Step 8:
The number 26 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18865.0
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The final result is 18865.0 with a remainder of 0.0.
